Poltergeist activity, demonic possession and an Anglican Exorcism that went horribly wrong …

Taken from documentation written at the time, this novel – set between 1988 and 1993 – revolves around one woman’s struggle against poltergeist activity, demonic possession and ultimate Exorcism at her home in the quaint English village of Slapton, Buckinghamshire.

It is unknown how the demonic spirit came to be at the cottage, but its presence resulted in a battle ensuing between God and Satan as they waged war for souls.

Finding herself caught in the middle and desperate for salvation from the evil spirit and ghosts which resided with her, Joanna turned to the Church for help, only to discover that the Exorcist appointed for the task would be less than accommodating.

About 12 years ago I used to live in an Old Vicarage in Anglesey North Wales and it was a gorgeous place to live in and had many rooms. It also had a church that was closed off but it was still used for some burials of some of the local folk, but that is all it was ever used for.

Not long after I moved in I was in this big eerie building with my best friend at the time Shaz, and we were sitting down chatting with a cup of tea, then through my living room door I saw this figure clear as day of a child from the Victorian ere, but the problem was there was no children in the house or on the grounds at that time and both my front door and porch door was locked, yeah it did scare me at first, but the little boy stayed which I didn’t mind, but he was …

My story begins when I was around 18. I had my first baby born and me and the father were having problems. We were always arguing and I ended up living with my older brother and his family in his home with my baby. To this day I don’t know where my daughter’s father is, he just left me and the baby alone and left. Out of no where I don’t know why I used to hear voices and see things I couldn’t explain. My mom said it might have been my nerves because when I was living with the father and my baby someone tried to brake into our home and I got very scared. So my mom said it has to be all in my head. Well anyways it all started with that.

I started getting worse to the pint where I would be throwing up and and started screaming that I could see things and hear things. …

As I am writing this I am at the age of 17. I was 13-15 when the story I am about to tell took place. I have always believed in the unknown. I can see spirits and talk to them and some times I allow them to control my body. People have always looked at me like I was the odd ball out and I am in ways. My cousin how ever didn’t believe me until she witnessed my doll try to kill me.

When I was 13 my mother moved me to Fostoria from North Baltimore. I knew the minute I stepped in the house that some thing was not right. Call it a gut feeling. Well while unpacking I had noticed that my favorite school girl dolls (collectors dolls) package had been damaged. So instead of trying to fix it I just took her out of the package. Now my doll had brown eyes when I had unpacked …

Behind my mothers house, she had a small trailer, one bed room, very small, anyways my brother was with his girlfriend. She was going to spend the night, the night was young and they were having a good time being alone and being young, they were talking.

2:00 am came around and they were laying down and talking when they felt something land on top of the trailer. They said that the trailer shook hard and they both got up.They could hear and feel something really heavy on top of it. My brother freaked out and grabbed a rope and tied the door knob and pulled it and tied it to the closet door, so what ever it was would not come in, as soon as he made the knot, something yanked on the door so hard, it shook the trailer and the trailer was moving side to side.They both said that they could hear …

Well, I’m once again back here, sharing my stories, I have one other story on here, called “Growing Up With A Ghost For A Best Friend” you may, or may not have read it. Or not. But the point in me being back is, I can see them again. I don’t know how but I have a fair idea.

I’m 16 now, and no longer living with my mum, I’m living with my dad. But before I moved, my mum asked if I would do the Ouija board with her, I agreed and we got a few ghosts to talk to us.

One in particular told me the reason I couldn’t see the ghosts anymore was because I was scared, not on the face of it all, but deep down. I knew it was right. How could it not be, but I was told I’m more fearless in a way now, and if I prove I can take …

This is actually my mom’s story that she told me. When she was younger her step-father had gotten a statuette and it was a John F. Kennedy statuette. It had like diamonds for its pupils and she thought that looked weird. So when he got it weird stuff started like the people that they new, stuff happened to them.

My step-grandfather got sent to the hospital, my grandmother was also sent to the hospital because one of her lungs clasped, a neighbor hit my moms school bus, etc. The thing that happened to my mom is a little freaky.

My mom and her friend were decorating the house and her friend was at the other side of the house from were my mom was and my mom was on a stool hanging stuff up and all of a sudden the stool was shaking and nobody was near her. (she and her friend were the only ones there at the time.) …

I’m a ordinary teen from a little town in Illinois. But I’m cursed with a special sixth sense. I can see and hear things nobody else does. And that sucks because I live in a haunted house.

Before we moved in, it was my grandma’s house.With my dad in and out of jail, we would move here and stay for about a month. That’s when I noticed my gift. Back then I was only ten, but I was already very interested in the paranormal. One night, I stayed up all night because I couldn’t sleep. At around five-thirty in the morning, I was about to shut of my TV when I heard a woman say hi. it was loud and clear.

When we moved in a year ago,things got really strange. We constantly hear footsteps in our hallway. My mom said she usually bumps into a person in the middle of the hallway, and she even had her hair pushed …

Please people if you do not believe me then don’t leave any negative comments, I just want to know if anyone has ever experienced this before if so please help me.

My name is Michael and I am 14 years old. When I was four I was taken away from my family and just when I turned 8 I went back to them.
We lived in a huge house in Coboconk Canada Ontario, my mother always said this house was haunted and there was a true story on it but I never believed her until a month after my birthday.

The experiences that I felt were abnormal, like someone/thing was watching me more then one to be correct. I’d get a dream of me verbally screaming at my cabinets, mirrors, etc, then everything would start moving around my room, window opening and closing, mirrors all moving with a dead happy image of an old man/woman and everything would be thrown …

The Simply Ghost Night team had such a great time at Cusworth Hall, but the nights event was made so much easier to run with the help of the Cusworth Hall staff of Phil and Craig, for which no task was to small for them and we thank them both for all their help.

With a full house at Cusworth Hall the team were enthralled to listen to the ghost hunters tales of their own ghostly experiences, with so many new faces who were so excited to attend their first ghost hunting event, the atmosphere was electric inside the packed greeting room. The Simply Ghost Night team were overwhelmed with the turnout of ghost hunters and we had indeed had to stop selling tickets months prior to the event.

The nights ghost hunting at Cusworth Hall, in Doncaster started quiet for some of the groups, with reports of tapping, light anomalies, and movement of ghostly dark shadows, as well as …

Okay, so I live in an apartment which has been around since about 1975 or somewhere around that year. I’ve lived here for 3 years now. So, I guess the story begins around the second year of living here.

I was going down the stairs to go get a soda from the pop machine on the first floor. As I reached the second floor, which was a clearing with a window, and made my way to the stairs down to the second floor with apartments, I felt an odd, tingly feeling down my spine. Like somebody watching me. I turned, and nobody was there.

Now, I usually get my sodas at night, since that’s when my caffeine craving kicks in. I shrugged, and went down the stairs. I swear I heard the door opening and footsteps coming down the flight of stairs from the third floor hallway. I nearly had a panic attack. I shook off the thought, and continued …
